Dove-Myer Robinson Park, also known as the Parnell Rose Gardens, is an inner-city oasis.

The amazing sight of the park's 5000 rose bushes in first bloom coincides with the annual Parnell Festival of Roses.

The park is named after Sir Dove-Myer Robinson, Auckland City’s longest-serving mayor. Located on Gladstone Road in Parnell, it connects to the recently upgraded Judges Bay and offers spectacular views of Waitematā Harbour.
